The new wave of realistic cinema shouldn’t undermine the “Bollywood stamp of melodramas”, says Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the maker of opulent films. “There’s a new wave, a new dimension in the industry... but I only hope that in this new wave, we do not lose our great Bollywood stamp of melodramas, song-dance rituals, classic literature and all that form the very distinct Bollywood style of filmmaking,” Bhansali said.
